Kate Winslet to star in Roman Polanski’s next

Oscar winner Kate Winslet will star in controversial director Roman Polanski's film 'God of Carnage'.

Oscar-winning actress Kate Winslet is all set to star in controversial director Roman Polanski’s film adaptation of Yasmina Reza’s play ‘God of Carnage’.

Although set in New York,the ‘Titanic’ star will work on Polanski’s film in Paris because the filmmaker is banned

from entering America. Polanski fled the country in 1977 after

he was convicted of having unlawful sex with a 13-year-old

girl.

The filmmaker has roped in two other Oscar-winners Jodie Foster and Christoph Waltz to play pivotal roles,reported The Independent.

The second male lead is rumored to be Matt Dillon.

Reza’s Tony Award-winning play tells the story of two sets of parents who meet after their sons are involved in a fight. The meeting takes a turn with attacks on each other’s parenting and then assaults against the marriages.

Production on ‘God of Carnage’ is scheduled to begin in February.
